I need help finding a unique costume idea. I'm 19, female, blue/green eyes and brownish hair. I'm only 4'11'' and 95 lbs, so I'm a short gal X3

Oh, sorry it took me so long to reply, I've been busy.

I like kinda actiony-ish, weird-ish, fantasty-ish anime, like Naruto, DBZ, Samurai Champloo, Eureka, .Hack, Trinity Blood, Hellsing, D Grayman, and things like that.

Thing is though, I wanna be someone hardly anyone else will be. Aka: Popular anime like Bleach and Naruto are generally out of the question, cause I'll show up there with 50 other twins XD

Hmmm since you put it that way. Why not pick a character...From each of these that a dozen of otherz wouldnt ever think of picking? Just a suggestion.

I'm sorry if I'm taking this the wrong way, but it's very difficult to read something on the internet and tell whether or not someone is trying to be sarcastic and inconsiderate. So far I've seen this place as very friendly place, and I've rarely seen, so far, anybody being rude. My apologies if I read your statement incorrectly...

And yes, I have thought of this obvious solution, but unfortunately, I'm not that familiar with that many other animes besides the ones I've listed. I'm doing research now, but I figured I's also ask others for their advise who may know more about cosplying (since I've never cosplyed before) and who know more about different anime shows, rather than picking some obscure character that just "looks cool". After all, this is a forum for these type of questions.

But if that's too much trouble for you I can figure it out perfectly fine myself, I just figured getting a few extra opinions wouldn't hurt.

But lately, I've been thinking, since a lot of the other shows I've been looking up haven't sparked my interest, I'd try out Eureka from Eureka. I absolutly love this show, but the only thing is, like I mentioned, it is a fairly popular show (to my understanding). Althought I did want something a little less likely to be duplicated by others, I think I may stick with that. At the convention I normally go to, I've never seen a Eureka, but again, this will only be my second year going XD

Has anybody else seen that many Eureka's running around? If not I may just stick with this idea.

Thanks for all your help!!!

Lesse... I could probably come up with millions of characters, but ill limit it to three or four. Here are a few suggestions ^_^

Nodoka from Negima, the outfit wouldn't be too hard to try..

If you can make a semi-tough costume you could try Princess Ashe from FFXII

And, last but not least, you could try for Hinata

talking to strangers is underrated.
